" What are we going to cook today ?" saavi asked tucking her pallu in her saree.

Siddharth was still looking at her, he cleared his throat and answered while looking here and there" i dont know"

" atleast look at me" saavi said and stepped closer to sid but he stepped back

" stay away" sid said without looking at her

" okay if you want me to stay away, i'll do that" saavi said stepping away

" but what are we going to make?" saavi asked looking at him

" You decide" he still didnt look at her

" lets make kheer for sweet dish and butter chicken for main course" saavi said

Sid nodded

" you need to look at me and talk to me, if we want to do this together" saavi said

he ignored her

she looked here and there and saw aprons at top of the shelf, she tried reaching for it but she was too short.

" what do you want? just say it" sid said still not looking at her

" aprons?" she said

He put his hand on the shelf and handed it to her

" here" he forwarded it without looking at her

" pehnao bhi " saavi said making sids eyes wide

" i dont know how to wear it. help me" saavi said pressing her lips into a thin line, supassing her laugh. she just wanted to get close to him.

Sid put the thing into her neck, without looking at her. he turned her, while she took her hairs in the front from one side. he looked at her back, closed his eyes and said " control sid control". he tied the apron

" thank you" saavi said giving a cute smile to him

" Go bring a pot and boil the milk into it" saavi said.

sid kept looking at her as she was tieing her hair.

Sid did whatever she said like a little boy

" now we need to make naan for the butter chicken, do you know how to knead the dough?"

sid nodded

" oh wow such a husband material, sorry to say but i dont know how to knead. you'll teach me right?" saavi said

sid just nodded

" i know you are mad at me. but atleast you can say a few words to me. it feels like i am annoying you by talking so much. i'll talk less. sorry" saavi pouted

" its fine, i don't mind. keep talking" sid replied not trying to show her that he cared about her being sad.

saavi smiled

Sid took a large bowl and started kneading while saavi started preparing for butter chicken

Suddenly saavi started laughing at sid.

" w-what?" sid asked

" you're such a baby sid" saavi laughed and started wiping his forehead with pallu

Sid fumbled back, saavi held him, tipped toed and wiped the dough

" such a baby you are sid" saavi repeated again

" stop calling me that" sid said

" baby baby baby, you're my baby" saavi said making sid blush
